Did You Know..?

Five Oaks is located on 116 acres of Six Nations territory.

Five Oaks acknowledges that we gather on the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe and Neutral peoples and acknowledge their stewardship of this land throughout the ages.

Five Oaks sits at the confluence of two waterways—a sacred place in Indigenous traditions; for others, a ’thin place’ where the physical and spiritual are closely and deeply experienced. Today, Five Oaks offers transformational experiences at the confluence of renewal and action: ‘come apart’ for restful and reflective retreat; leave with tools and inspiration for life.
